South Korean capital Seoul on Thursday (March 1) said it has sent a proposal for co-hosting the 2032 Olympics with the North’s Pyongyang to the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in a bid to keep its hopes alive despite Brisbane being the front-runner.
The IOC has already picked the Australian city as the preferred partner for hosting the Games. South Korean President Moon Jae-in and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un agreed to pursue the joint Olympics bid at their summit in Pyongyang in late 2018.
But relations have soured since a summit between Kim and then US president Donald Trump in 2019 failed to reach agreement on North Korea’s denuclearisation, in which Moon had offered to play a mediating role.

HARBIN－The prospect of competing on home ice at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics makes up for all the hardships Guo Dan has endured after making the difficult decision to become a speed skater six years ago.
On Tuesday, the former roller skater finished second in the women s mass start event at the 2020-2021 China Speed Skating Championships in Harbin, Heilongjiang province. It is disappointing because this is not my real strength, said Guo, who also won a silver medal at last week s National Speed Skating Championships.
